A Day in My Life...

Hi! I'm Tin Tin Ramos and I'm 19 years old. I live in Makati, Philippines and I am a full-time worker in our church. I've been serving for two years now. I'm happy to serve God, even though there are many trials. As a single mom with my 5-year old daughter, at many times I feel tired or that I would want to give up, but God is so amazing and true to his promises. He will never leave you nor forsake you. That's why I'm really, really amazed by God. God always comforts me. Sometimes I experience not being able to eat because I have no money to buy food. When I experience that, I just pray to God that even though I'm not eating I will continue to serve him. When I accepted Christ, I said to myself that I would surrender all my life to him.

One of my roles in the church is being the secretary. I'm also on the worship team, playing guitar and keyboard. On weekdays, I'm a teacher in our daycare ministry for street children. Being a teacher, at first I didn't know what I'm going to teach them and I don't know how to teach. But God put me here in this ministry. It's exciting for me because even though I don't have any training as a teacher, I saw the needs of our students. They need love from God and from us. We teach basics such as drawing lines and learning the alphabet, and I love teaching them!










I have a student named Bernadeth Delima. She has a physical disability, as her back bone broke when she was just 5-months old. Her dad is a pedicab driver (he drives people around on his bicycle with a side-cab attached). Her mom has no work and is just at home. Bernadeth is very funny and she always wants to dance to the song "Baby" by Justin Beiber. She's also an attention-seeker. I recently decided to make a feeding program for her to maintain her health, because she is a malnourished child.


I'm now also studying part-time in bible college in my first year. I'm taking Old and New Testament survey courses. I've learned so much. It's helping for me to share the word of God, and I'm learning about the life of Jesus. I can always say that God is amazing for what he did for us. He saved us from our sin. Christ's life is our ransom, and so it's our joy to just worship and serve him. And I will serve and worship God for the rest of my life.

This is my daughter CJ (pics below). She's 5 yrs old and she's going to school in kindergarten. She likes to read and write and to do her homework on her own. She's really matured, and she loves Spongebob :). Many times she's asking me about her dad, and I don't know what I'm going to tell her. I can't explain everything to her, as it's hard to explain my life before I became a christian. I told her that I love her so much and God loves her so much. It's hard to be a single mom because I don't have any work to give her a good life. But I know the Lord will provide, and he will be the father of my daughter. I always cry to the Lord, because I think about where I'm going to get money for CJ's tuition and her food for her school everyday. We stay with my parents and sometimes they help me to provide CJ's food. I know God will be with my daughter and I, and I know God will provide for us.




Please pray for me, my daughter, and for my ministries. That God will use me more for my students and for their family. Please also pray for my school - for my tuition and for my books that I need to buy, and for my financial situation. Thank you!
